Why These Expert-Loved Lip Oils Might Dethrone Your Favorite Gloss

Made with Color Reviver technology that creates a custom, natural-looking flush on the lips of anyone who wears it, Dior Glow Lip Oil is half oil, half magic trick. It’s gone viral on TikTok, graced Bella Hadid’s lips, and had pro makeup artists in thrall since its 2020 launch. The price is on the higher end of the spectrum, but many—including celebrity makeup artist Joanne Marchevsky, who works with Alix Earle—would argue that it’s worth it.

“Dior Lip Oil is a classic choice for effortless, hydrating shine,” Marchevsky says. “Its lightweight, nourishing formula gives your lips a beautiful, glossy finish without being sticky. I love how it adds a perfect sheer tint, enhancing my natural lip color with just the right amount of shine. With a range of sheer shades, you can find the perfect one to match your vibe and give your lips a healthy, natural look. It’s my go-to for a quick, luxe touch of hydration and color.”
